Hi reddit!!! I'm an international student currently living in Italy (pianura padana) and because this is the case, my apartment is pretty shitty. (i have a windowless, small room i pay way too much for. shoutout housing crisis) I use a fan every night but still wake up due to the heat.
I'll take cold showers before bed, use cooling gels and drink ice water, ventilate my room and use very light pijamas/sleep in underwear; but the humidity and the stuffyness from the /windowless closet/ i live in make it really difficult to survive the night. If you have any tricks, products or just advice, I'm so so happy to listen.
p.s I know I'll get lots of "I just don't sleep" comments
